GRAIN OFFERING – Tue, Oct 31, 2017

Leviticus 2:1-2 KJV

And when any will offer a grain offering unto the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil upon it, and put frankincense thereon:

[2] And he shall bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests: and he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; and the priest shall burn the memorial of it upon the altar, to be an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord:

In the next couple of chapters we shall be reading a few of the many offerings that were mandatory for the Jews.

Boring as they may seem, they still hold some valuable lessons about the nature of God and the state/form of whatever is presented to Him.

In our days now, we often forget the personality of the God we bring our offerings to. It wasn’t so with the Jews, even with the Grain Offering (which we read about today). They were supposed to offer the very best of its flour, mixed with oil and frankincense.

Always pause to check what you offer. How do you present it? It is of value to you? Is it the very representation of the lot you have? 🤔
